Immunocomplexed Antigen Capture and Identification by Native Top-Down Mass Spectrometry.
Article in Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Antibody-antigen interactions are central to the immune response. Variation of protein antigens such as isoforms and post-translational modifications can alter their antibody binding sites. To directly connect the recognition of protein antigens with their molecular composition, we probed antibody-antigen complexes by using native tandem mass spectrometry. Specifically, we characterized the prominent peanut allergen Ara h 2 and a convergent IgE variable region discovered in patients who are allergic to peanuts. In addition to measuring the antigen-induced dimerization of IgE antibodies, we demonstrated how immunocomplexes can be isolated in the gas phase and activated to eject, identify, and characterize proteoforms of their bound antigens. Using tandem experiments, we isolated the ejected antigens and then fragmented them to identify their chemical composition. These results establish native top-down mass spectrometry as a viable platform for precise and thorough characterization of immunocomplexes to relate structure to function and enable the discovery of antigen proteoforms and their binding sites.
